Political Loyalty and Self-Worth

Thanks to President Biden's vaccine rollout, Brett and Jordy reunite in person for the first time in over two years, while Ben recovers from Moderna #2. The Brothers discuss the life-changing work of the Biden administration, which has brought families back together and is getting Americans back to school and back to work. President Biden's latest approval ratings are in, and it turns out, he is very good at this whole President thing. Yet, Republicans, led by their feckless "leader" Qevin McCarthy, continue to live in a fantasyland as they prepare to oust Liz Cheney from her leadership role because she believes in… reality? The Brothers then discuss the new breed of #BDSMRepublicans like Mitt Romney and Larry Hogan who still think they can co-exist with a party that abuses and humiliates them daily. 

Next, the Brothers proudly welcome former Dan Pfeiffer, former Senior Advisor to President Barack Obama for Strategy and Communications from 2013 to 2015, current co-host of Pod Save America and writer of The Message Box newsletter, to discuss the current state-of-play for Democrats heading into the 2022 elections and how we can take on a party that has turned into nothing more than a cult. They discuss the importance of the For The People Act, what we do if it doesn't pass the Senate, the importance of a robust progressive media ecosystem and much more.

Later, the Brothers highlight some more good news across America, including plummeting levels of hunger amongst Americans and California's staggering budget surplus.
